As the suaret’s river fleet arrived at Border Town
Roland had intentionally received the female merchant at the pier so that he could incidentally exaht with her
The oods were the three boats full of saltpeter By now, Border Town’s gunpowder reserves had basically been exhausted– even the First Arh they had already started to equip the army with revolver-rifles, they still had to stay in practice with reloading, gun maintenance, and replenishment of their ammunition Noith this batch of saltpeter, they could finally resu
In addition to saltpeter and in accordance with their agreeots– these were reen vitriol ore Just the unloading of these goods already needed two or three days time
When Roland offered Margaret the opportunity to inspect the two stea position in the yard Further the the nearly the whole month, the West Industrial Coether while producing hundreds of scrap parts Because of that, Roland had Anna process the defective parts that didn’t deviate too ether into a second steaine to catch up with the delivery schedule
To Roland’s surprise, Margaret had not coroup of ’s City with her
When the delivery of the goods was organized, Margaret and her partner followed Roland back to the castle where they enjoyed a sumptuous lunch in the reception hall
“Your Highness, this is Hogger, an old friend of ’s City” Margaret pointed at the to the Crescent-Moon-Bay Caravan They were very interested in learning ines, and since I have known them for many years, I was too eht them with me so that I could introduce them to you
“I offerout his large belly while his face glistened with grease: “Margaret told me that this machine can be used in the place of manpower, and that it can quickly pump water and transport ore out of a mine Moreover, it doesn’t have to take a break and can run throughout the whole day Would it be possible that I see it with my own eyes?”
“Of course,” Roland sipped a mouthful of wine At first, he had been coradually gotten used to it “But if you want to make it carry ore, you also have to install the railroad system After lunch, I can take you to the North Slope Mine, where you can see it for yourself”
“Your Royal Highness, I am also very curious about all the different uses of the steaine that you’ve described Can it really be installed on a sailboat and an to ask, “In case it is possible, would it be possible for it to rese shi+p? I’h”
“In that regard, steaines are just like horses Some of them have a lot of force while others have less; it depends on the type of reater output are naturally h, you can also install more, like maybe two or four of them” Roland answered with a smile
To use a steamer on board, even if it’s the most primitive paddler, it would also need a co system In addition to Border Town, there isn’t any other place in the Kingdoy needed to modify a shi+p But the installation cost would certainly be ine itself
“In that case, the Crescent Moon Bay Caravan also wants to order those machines from you” Gammon forked a steam bun that had just left the steam basket and stuffed it into his mouth, but its fresh juices were so hot that he narrowed his eyes
Sure enough, siether The friend of rich people will always also be rich Even without seeing the actual product, they finalized an order right away, as if thousands of gold royals were nothing in their eyes
Roland shook his head, “Unfortunately, at the moment, Border Town lacks ine is very complicated to create, I am afraid it will be difficult to produce any additional aret’s order is completed
“I can provide you with the neededhis chest “Both carpenters and blacksmiths, even shi+pbuilders if needed I have a lot of thee!”
“And then you’d have the er interrupted
“Ten years, your Highness,” Ga to let them work for you for ten years, and there will be only one requireine made by them will be offered to the Crescent-Moon-Bay Caravan
That is an attractive offer, Roland thought, it would be the say partnershi+ps later, where our side would only provide the technology and still et the steaet a number of skilled workers after a decade In this way, the workers’ salaries would be equivalent to the cost of purchasing the technology
